The Priddy Library provides access to Pressbooks, an easy-to-use ebook authoring tool that can be used to write and publish openly licensed books. You can use Pressbooks to:
- Create textbooks, course modules, handbooks and other online documents.
- Apply an open license to your published work.
- Export items in multiple digital and print formats.
- Create custom course materials and open textbooks that save students money and provide increased flexibility for faculty in delivering course content!
We recommend you follow our guidelines when adapting or creating content on this platform. If you have questions, contact Eileen Harrington, Assistant Library Directory, eharring@umd.edu.
